Upon a New Year's day
  E                   Am     
A host of knights did pray
     F              C                  G     Eb5+
That from the anvil one could draw the sword
   Am                   E
As each knight took his turn
               Am             E 
They found the anvil, held it firm
     F      Dm   Am     E        Am
None worthy of a future King and Lord

    E               Am
Sir kay the bravest Knight
  E                 Am
Appeared to try his might
    F               C                G    Eb5+
He dreamed of being King, as all the rest
   Am              E
To Arthur Sir Kay called to search
    Am              E
And bring for him a sword
    F      Dm     Am   E         Am
In earnest Arthur set about his quest

   E                Am
A churchyard in the wood
    E               Am
The sword and anvil stood
    F               C                 G    Eb5+
And Arthur drew his sword out of the stone
    Am          E
The anvil now defeated
          Am               E
His quest for the sword completed
  F          Dm     Am        E      Am
A sword that was to place him on the throne
  F          Dm     Am        E      Am
A sword that was to place him on the throne

Sir Hector and Sir Kay
         E                  Am
Saw the sword and knelt to pray
      F              C              G   Eb5+
Then gently took it from Arthhur's hand
      Am               E
They marvelled at his quest
   Am               E
Ploclaiming to the rest
F      Dm     Am      E        Am
Arthur is the King of all this land
F      Dm     Am      E        Am
